Can rectal prolapses come back after surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not common: Although recurrent prolapse is possible after surgical repair, it's not very likely . An experienced general surgeon or colorectal surgeon should have a good result, but even rare complications do occur. Good luck.
